Since 1956 Penn has celebrated a rite
of passage each year, for faculty and staff of all ranks who
meet only one
common requisite: they have been members of the University community
for twenty-five years. Another 115 new members crossed the twenty-five
year mark and were inducted at the University of Pennsylvania
Twenty-five Year Club celebration that was held on October 2
in Houston Hall. This year there are five people who reached
the 50-year mark. Each received a 50-year bowl. A celebration
was also held at New Bolton Center on October 29, for the 25-Year
Club members who work at that
location.

Please mark your
calendar for next year's 25-Year
Club celebration which will be held on October 14, 2004.
